Hi David --

TrueType support was improved in Squeak 6.0. See Apps > FontImporter to get started. If you want to learn about the programming interface, take a look at:    - TTCFont class >> #installFromFileNames:    - TextStyle class >> #named:    - TextMorph >> #textStyle:    - PluggableTextSpec >> #textStyle:

How to change the system font to a custom TrueType font ?

I managed to solve with the help of the following:

http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/5586 http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/5584 http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/5773 - system with russian (cyrillic) fonts

The above documents helped a lot; specifically the document 5773 "how to setup Squeak with a cyrillic font", had an important note:

"Switch your fonts This can be done from World->Appearance->System Fonts."

That works indeed, if you set the various fonts (text font, menu font, list font, code font etc.) in the World->Appearances->System Fonts.

I think this could be in its own wiki page:

"How to change the default System Fonts"

if such a doc does not already exist.

I didn't find it on wiki.squeak.org but fortunately the other docs helped.
